Alzheimer's (Dementia) Psychiatrists
A progressive neurodegenerative disease, Alzheimers Disease slowly destroys an individual's memory, judgment, cognition and eventually ability to function. It represents an enormous burden on victims of the disease and their family alike.

Alzheimer's usually begins after age 65, but its onset may occur as early as age 40, appearing first as memory decline and, over several years, destroying cognition, personality, and ability to function. Confusion and restlessness may also occur. The early symptoms of AD, which include forgetfulness and loss of concentration, can be missed easily because they resemble signs of natural aging.

If you're looking for help for a friend or mother or father with alzheimer's in Lakewood or for a Lakewood alzheimer's psychiatrist, these professionals provide alzheimer's help, alzheimer's therapy, alzheimer's counseling and alzheimer's treatment. They include alzheimer's psychiatrists, alzheimer's psychologists and alzheimer's counselors. Psychiatrists can help with testing for alzheimer's or diagnosis of alzheimers in Lakewood. They work with alzheimer behaviors in Lakewood and follow alzheimer's research. Psychiatrists can provide support for family members and carers of alzheimer's patients in Lakewood or direct you to local alzheimer's resources.

Lakewood Psychiatrists differ from other mental health professionals in that they may prescribe medication or psychotropics. Psychiatrists may conduct physical examinations, order and interpret lab tests and brain image scans, such as CT scans, CAT Scans and MRIs.
